BeatofSports: 10 min radio interview with author on uniform survey plus article

[Knight_Light]

For those that missed this pretty interesting interview the other day with Marc Daniels and the writer at Pick Six Previews that did the survey with 16-17 yr old current HS recruits on the topic of uniforms.

Radio interview begins at 12:20 mark:

Thought it was interesting in the below rating interview where the author noted that the 16-17 yr old HS recruits:

43% of the respondents favored modern uniforms
Only 5% of the respondents favored classic uniforms
(Point being, for top historical programs like Alabama, Penn State, Michigan, USC, etc.....don't need to worry much about their uniform look...but for the other 110 plus programs, it could be important to some recruits).

Here's the original article on their survey

Apparently those kids had never seen our urine gold jerseys that didn't match the gold in the helmets. Glad those days are behind us.

Or maybe...they thought these white ones were ok:

I think someone is confusing the Cow's uniforms with our's regarding the urine gold color...... Puke green and urine gold are the University of West Cereal Florida's colors.

Well, that and the kaleidoscope of white, green, light green and yellow that looks so much like the BP oil company logo.....

You might be right but I'm referring to the USF UCF game in 2013. Can't post a pic from my phone.
BTW did anyone on the free board post that Dawkins got a commit from an ESPN150 player named Lewis? Hadn't seen that yet.

We had urine gold too.

I'm not sure but he does have a nice offer list. I hope he sticks with the commitment. We need to start stacking a few top 150 recruits if we really want to compete in basketball.

Not sure we have anything on any of our athletic uniforms that is truly gold...even "urine gold" on unis...off-white, light tan, awful.

New uniforms + more wins + more TV time = better recruiting classes
